Hey everyone, a little question for you that came up during a match today. While you can use a knight to chase away the robber, do you have to roll the dice first, or can you do it before rolling? The rules aren't clear on this. We figured that seeing as how you can use a Knight card in regular Catan before rolling the dice, surely you can do the same with the knights in Cities & Knights.

If I recall correctly the cities and knights rule book has a variant called Knight Errant which allows you to move the robber before you roll. This is a fairly standard variant that the group I play with uses.
